- Isabela's Maid: Oh, Senorita, you should not be going out at this late hour.
- Isabela Torres: How else am I going to find out where Professor Hernandez goes at night?
- Isabela's Maid: But, Milady... .
- Isabela Torres: Oh, don't worry. It's perfectly safe. Capitan Montecero has placed the Cahuenga Gorge off limits. I'm just going to ride out there and find out why.
- Isabela's Maid: You-you call this safe? Isabela, this will lead to nothing but trouble.
- Isabela Torres: Don't be silly. After all, Zorro always comes to aid of a lady in distress.
- [last lines]
- Don Alejandro: By Gad, that Zorro is a wonder - but who could he possibly be?
- Isabela Torres: That's a mystery that may never be solved.
- [Isabela winks at the audience]
- Wagon Driver: So the rumors are true. There is a masked man who fights injustice in this pueblo.
- Old Man: You've heard of him? Who is he?
- Wagon Driver: He is the one they call, "The Fox". He is Zorro!
- Zorro: Isabela, I implore you. Don't tell a soul what you've seen here.
- Isabela Torres: On one condition - let me help you. You aren't the only one to fight Montecero.
- Zorro: Isabela, this is a dangerous game I'm playing!
- Isabela Torres: And I can play it just as well as you.
- Zorro: [sighs] With Montecero's stranglehold on the pueblo growing tighter every day, you'll probably get your chance.
- Zorro: [to Sergeant Garcia's men] Have you nothing better to do than attack defenseless women in the middle of the night?
- Isabela Torres: Defenseless?
- Isabela Torres: Aren't you two interested in just who this Zorro might be?
- Don Alejandro: Of course, but he could be anyone.
- Isabela Torres: Indeed. Even our good Professor Hernandez.
- Professor Hernandez: [snorts] But... me?
- Don Alejandro: My dear, he's an agricultural expert, not a rebel.
- Isabela Torres: Oh, really? I seem to recall Zorro first appeared just days after the professor arrived from Spain with Diego. Oh, hello, Diego. Go back to your book.
- [a whip sails out of the night, wraps around a soldier's wrist and yanks him off the wagon]
- Old Man: What was that?
- Soldier: Zorro!
- Sgt Garcia: Zorro? Ah-ah-ah... Get him!
- Zorro: By what right do you stop these men?
- Soldier: By order of Captain Montecero!
- Zorro: Orders or not, your captain is a common thief.
- Isabela Torres: And Diego, what of you?
- Diego: Oh, I beg your pardon, Isabela.
- Isabela Torres: Aren't you the least bit curious who Zorro might be?
- Diego: Oh, it's all politics and politics bore me. I'm much more interested in matters of philosphy.
- [to Zorro's horse, who is racing across the moonlit fields at breakneck speed with Isabela on his back]
- Isabela Torres: Whoa, boy, whoa! Don't you understand, "Whoa"?
- Isabela Torres: [sighs] I do admire your son, Don Alejandro, but why couldn't he be just a little bit like Zorro?
